Question
Chapter 8, Problem 30RE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Glycoproteins and glycolipids are to be defined.
Concept introduction:
Glycolipids are formed form ceramides whose primary alcohol groups form glycosidic bonds with the sugar groups, resulting in the formation of cerbroside.
Glycoproteins are the molecules that are formed post-translationally, that is, the carbohydrate moiety is attached after the formation of proteins.
